The intent is that if this is the only application running (such that Alt-Tab does nothing), the QUITWORD and Ctrl-Alt-Del are the only ways out of the sandbox.

First: You're all welcome to the program, although you won't want it unless you have a kid just the right age. Stricted disclaimers in place, of course.

Second: If I miss my intent for the sandbox, or you have other criticisms, please let me know. I expect to release version 1.0 in a week or two.

Cool. My boy LOVES pounding on the keyboard. One thing I might add are sounds. It will complicate the programming, but would be a cool feature. You would of course want to be able to disable that feature as well :)

Great!

I meant to write something similar, but I usually code for AtheOS in my free time. My boy will love it.

Yup, I like it too.

(Yes, _I_ like to pound at the keyboard, it's a great stress reliever)

Some accesibility features should be turned off, though (narrator and magnify, on my windows 2000 machine, popped out when I was in pounding frenzy)

Cheers!

Thanks, Leonardo. That's why developers don't QA their own software. We tend to exercise the software in very narrow ways.
